Those crazy guys over at Something Awful have done it again!
This week, they take a look at tattoos…
Heh. The Wendy’s tattoo is the best. My ex-fiance had a KISS tattoo, but he would never say whether he got any grief about it.
The only possible explanation for these people is that they all watched an American Justice presentation on Ed Gein, got totally spooked, and wanted to make sure that nobody would ever want their skin.
I think I like the NASCAR fan best.
Oh man, that was a great read! Thanks! 
I think the bashful wizard is my favorite.
(Didn’t these people get stencils done before the actual tattoo?? ;))
The Jeff Gordon fan was the best (and I mean best as…not at all).
Hey does anyone know much about tattoo removal?
I dont believe that the Wnedy’s one is an actual tattoo. Look at the skin. It’s not raised at all, no color differences throughout the tattoo. IF it was new the skin would be raised up a little from the swelling. If it was older it wouldn’t look so uniform.
That’s a painted on tat if you ask me.
The Nascar one literally had me crying with laughter.

Looks real to me, and I’m pretty well inked. Check out the black lines and how they interact with the owner’s pores. Plus, it is slightly raised. And I have several “older” tattoos that are still nice and dark and uniform.
Yow! Hey, Something Awful is not safe for work for a lot of folks…be careful out there!
What about the Star Wars one? That ruled - that is really showing his fanhood. Commendable job.
I know that it’s both more expensive and more painful than tattoos themselves. And I know that most dermatologic surgeons caution that complete tattoo removal is not possible. Howstuffworks has some good info about tattoo removal.
Wasn’t the consensus that it was a chick? Because of the waist and the lack of hair?
I had to get up and walk away from the computer when I read that one. Sure, it’s insensitive, but it’s beautiful too.
Like a sorority girl full of GHB.

The artwork on it was horrible. Proportions were off, colors weren’t right and it looked like he/she got another character added whenever they had the money without real regard to how it looks as an entire backpiece.
